Chapter 121 Hurry up and go find your precious assistant!

"I can't believe you're so useless. Not only did you lose the case, but you also got so many charges leveled against you. Are you going to take responsibility for Ruifeng's losses?!"

Zhou Yuanming, though hurt by the blow, dared not retaliate. Standing in front of the desk, he glanced up at him, frowned, and stammered an explanation:

"Chairman Shen, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on me. I took over the job yesterday without any prior preparation."

If anyone's to blame, it's Song Yanzhi! Who knows where he's off off to have some fun, causing you such a huge loss!

"..." Shen Shaohui's face darkened even more when he heard his words. He picked up his phone again and dialed Song Yanzhi's number, but it was still switched off.

Damn it, where did that man go?

"Has that Nanxia also gone missing?" His eyes deepened.

“Yes, the two of them went missing together in the island tourist area the day before yesterday,” Zhou Yuanming nodded in agreement.

"Hmph, isn't this just too much of a coincidence..."

Shen Shaohui put his hands behind his back, gave a cold snort, and suspected that Nanxia had used some means to deliberately trap Song Yanzhi there.

Could it be that the woman knew she had ordered those thugs to go there, and that's why she used this method to get back at me?

His eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of ruthlessness flashing within them—

Around 3 p.m., Nan Xia and Song Yanzhi arrived at the law firm at the same time, just as they had planned.

The two got out of the car and looked at each other. Nan Xia looked at him standing not far away and was speechless. Why did he come at this time?

If we walked into the law firm together, my colleagues would definitely start gossiping again.

Song Yanzhi, on the other hand, remained calm and unconcerned.

Nan Xia was about to get back into the car and wait for him to get in first when another car suddenly stopped beside them, and Zhou Yuanming climbed out of it.

Looking at the two of them with a surprised expression, he asked:

"Attorney Nan, where have you been these past few days? Why are you only coming back now? I was so worried about you."

"That day, a boss called both me and Attorney Song at the same time, asking us to go to the cruise ship to discuss the case. After we went up, we unexpectedly offended a gangster, and we were both kidnapped."

"Luckily we escaped and only got back to the city this morning," Nan Xia lied to explain.

Zhou Yuanming knew, of course, that she had deliberately tricked Song Yanzhi onto the ship, and asked with lingering concern, "So, were you two hurt?"

“No,” she said.

"It's good that you weren't injured. By the way, Attorney Song, you didn't come back yesterday. I went to court in your place because I wasn't prepared at all. Ruifeng lost the case and suffered heavy losses."

"Chairman Shen is quite angry. Remember to apologize to him." Zhou Yuanming pushed the mess onto him.

"Since Director Zhou lost the case, you're the one who should apologize," Song Yanzhi said before leaving.

Zhou Yuanming's expression was not good.

"Has Director Zhou received his legal fees yet?" Nan Xia asked him.

Upon hearing the mention of legal fees, Zhou Yuanming's face darkened even further, and he said in a deep voice:

“I mentioned legal fees to that old man, and not only did he refuse to pay, but I also got scolded for hours! He deserved to lose the case.”

He wants to apologize himself? What a load of rubbish!

I'm so angry I'm full.

Nanxia almost burst out laughing when she heard his words. Not only did he not receive his lawyer's fees, but he also lost the case, which damaged the image of lawyers.

It feels so good to mess with him.

“Chairman Shen is angry right now. Try going to him again in a while and see what happens,” she urged.

"Well, that's the only way." He suddenly remembered Song Yanzhi's assistant and asked her, "By the way, did Lin Yi come back with you?"

"Lin Yi didn't come back with the law firm's people?" Nan Xia asked him warily.

"On the day you tricked Attorney Song into going on the cruise ship, she seemed to have disappeared as well. I did manage to get through to her on the phone, and she said she was going to find Song Yanzhi."

I called her again yesterday, but her phone was suddenly switched off. Could something have happened?

He really didn't want to get involved with Song Yanzhi, but if anything happened, the law firm would have to take responsibility.

Upon hearing his words, Nan Xia became even more wary of the woman. During the few days of the trip, Song Yanzhi stayed in his own room. Could she have seen him?

After all, she likes Song Yanzhi, so she will definitely pay more attention to his movements than others.

Upon arriving at the law firm, she went directly to Song Yanzhi's office.

The man sitting behind his desk looked up at her, his tone icy, "What is it?"

"Has Lin Yi contacted you these past few days?" Nan Xia asked as she walked in.

"No, what's wrong?" he asked.

"Zhou Yuanming said she was looking for us in the tourist area and hasn't come back yet. I suspect she saw us staying in the same room."

"I wonder if they secretly followed us onto the ship?" she said to the man.

“Even if she really saw it, she wouldn’t say anything to the people at the law firm.” In Song Yanzhi’s memory, Lin Yi had always listened to him and had never done anything to hurt him.

For example, when Nanxia first joined the law firm, she saw the two of them being intimate, but she never told anyone.

"Heh, you trust her quite a bit." Nan Xia laughed, feeling inexplicably annoyed.

"You just said she was looking for us in the tourist area and hasn't come back yet?" he asked.

"Yeah, you should hurry up and drive to find her. What if your precious assistant runs into bad guys?" she said casually, arms crossed.

Song Yanzhi glanced at her, said nothing, and silently took out his phone to dial his assistant's number, but the phone was off.

Is something bad going to happen?

“She went out on a team-building trip with the law firm. If something happens, the law firm will be responsible. Did Zhou Yuanming say when he lost contact with her?” he asked.

“Yesterday.” Nan Xia replied indifferently, but judging from his expression, it was clearly genuine concern.

Why is it because they're afraid the law firm will bear the responsibility?

Zhou Yuanming was also afraid of taking responsibility, so he didn't go to see her.

When Song Yanzhi heard that he had been unable to contact her since yesterday, he frowned, remained silent for a moment, then got up, preparing to take his bodyguards to go and look for her.

"Are you really going to go find her yourself?" Nanxia turned around and asked.

"Well, anyway, she stayed there because she was looking for us." He said and then left.

Nanxia didn't expect him to care so much about that assistant, and she was quite disappointed in him—if he cared so much about that woman, he should just date her, why did he ask me to reconcile with her?

At night, at the bar counter.

Nan Xia was sitting here drinking alone when a handsome man suddenly sat down next to her and asked in a sour tone, "Where's Song Yanzhi? Didn't he come to drink with you?"

She turned her head and saw Shen Yan.

That day, she and Song Yanzhi secretly went to the cruise ship, but she didn't take him with her, which disappointed him.

"He went to find his precious assistant," Nan Xia said, propping her forehead with one hand and looking at him with a dizzy head.
